Delivered new in 1980 to Trans-Colorado Airlines and imported into Canada in 1989. Brooker Wheaton (by this date called Morningstar Air Express) aircraft were almost always painted in the FedEx livery so unusual to get this one in house colors. Likely here on a freight charter as indicated by the cargoliner covering the windows inside. It operates for Carson Air out of Kelowna (CYLW) in 2022. (The pile of rubble behind is from the ripping up of runway 13/31 which was being re-laid at this time.)
